Appearance: Yorick has continued his training to become a gentleman, which has led to many changes. With the one and only uniform he brought destroyed, he now wears one of Luthas' modified uniforms consisting of a jacket that looks more like a tailed coat with a redesigned collar and cuffs that has many decorative patterns made from gold colored thread and the same color lining the edges and pants that are equally ornate. His hair is no longer messy throughout the day and he now wears it in a low ponytail. Overall, Yorick now appears like a well-groomed aristocrat. However, at night when he visits the forest he will remove the jacket, tie, and ponytail and even rustle his hair. Once he goes deep enough into the forest and is sure he is alone, he transforms into his Werewolf form to hunt.
Personality: One week ago, Yorick was in disarray. His smile was scarce, often with a pensive or frustrated scowl in its place. He struggled to make sense of the new feelings welling up inside him from his short time at the academy up to that point which were due to things such as unanswered questions, homesickness, unmet expectations, and unresolved feelings of his past. Throughout the week he has spoken with Luthas about much of this. He would occasionally speak with Allister about his emotions, but in time he only spoke with him about questions with more concrete answers, approaching Luthas for everything else.
Now Yorick has a much better grasp on both the world around him as well as himself. While he is still ignorant in many things and still asks questions often, he is much more stable and understanding. After confronting his issues of homesickness he is no longer averse to entering the forest, rather he takes frequent night trips to it to hunt and act as if he were in fact home. He understands that he isn't, but he figures it's as close as he can get. It is approaching the point where his night self and his day self are almost completely different people.
Something that hasn't changed is Yorick's dedication to upholding laws and rules. This has been a major influence to his views on certain people at the academy. However, as he understands more he no longer follows these rules blindly, although one's idea of the extent of the word "blindly" may not be the same as his own. Besides his idea of civilization, his views are also largely influenced by his origins in nature. They form his fundamental opinions on larger themes such as the individual and how they relate to those around them. He believes all are equal and essential, the prey and the predator, the plant and the animal, the animate and inanimate. He also struggles to comprehend ideas such as hatred and love, ideas cultivated by ages of sentient thought. As such, he also struggles to comprehend art and symbolism.
History: Yorick has spent the majority of the week learning, either on his own or with Luthas. His vocabulary has increased greatly from his time with his dictionary, but his knowledge is still bound to strict definitions and does not include connotations, slang, and expressions. Other things he has learned more about include poetry, history, maths. and sciences. He particularly enjoys biology because it is mostly concrete facts that make sense (as opposed to certain events in history or the other more math-centric sciences). During the day when he is not spending time with other people, he can often be found in the library. The night usually consists of trips to the forest.
Concerning his friends, he still enjoys spending time with Allister and Cheryll, occasionally speaking with Terra (although he still wonders where Gavin has gone, since he has no clue what happened to him or why Terra's scent matches Gavin's exactly), but most of his time is spent with Luthas whenever the snowman has free time and isn't busy investigating. Luthas has spent much of his own time trying to find out why the student council has become so corrupt. He has come up with several theories and has even come close to tracking the source, but the culprit is always alert and consistently covering their tracks. He often asks for Yorick's help to assist in the investigation thanks to the hunter Werewolf's good tracking skills.
People he is not entirely fond of at present are Yami and Luna, ones who brandish weapons on school grounds, Sagishi, a practitioner of Illegal magic, and Elise, a killer who runs free and unpunished. He also has doubts concerning Higoroshi-sensei's refusal to act on these things. He doesn't dislike any of these people per se, but he can't bring himself to like any of them either. On the other hand, he has spoken with Lerion and Takumi. He has also tried to speak with Nami, but he was unsuccessful.
Weakness: Yorick is still easily confused, misled and lied to. He has not worked on his combat ability so his fighting style still focuses on feral tactics and instinct, although his abilities in stealth have been kept sharp through hunting. As with all Werewolves, he is prone to changes in the moon's phase.
Other: Along with affecting his appearance, the gentleman training has also changed his manners and mannerisms. He tries to be polite and to eat food with utensils as well as standing upright when he walks with his chin up among other things, but he is still far from perfecting the act.
